Hello. I'll be the first. We have a 1956 VW Beetle which I have owned for 46 years. Sharon has a 1965 Triumph Herald convertible. Our daily car some might consider it old but to us it's the newest car we ever had but it's a 1998 VW Golf convertible. Ken.

Sounds a bit familiar...

On topic: The "car" (well, truck) I own today is nowhere near old; it's a 2010 Ford F-150. However, a worthy mention for this topic, depending on your definition of "older," is my first car. I got it only 10 years ago - yes, believe it or not, I'm only 26 - for $6500. It was a 1989 Chevrolet C/K Silverado, extended cab, that couldn't have gotten any more than 20 miles per gallon. It lasted from 2006 all the way into May 2014, when I had a very bad wreck near Hammond, T-boned by a semi-truck. That poor C/K was totalled, and 2 months later in July was when I bought the aforementioned Ford for $15000.
